Hello Ben,
It would be useful also to add a detailed picture of the sorsoran on both sides and a top view of the ganja to see its profile. Regards |

You show us only the blades. Better show us also pictures of the dressed keris.

OK Jean, i shall make the pictures, i can understand that it's very difficult to judge from the bad pictures.
Henk, this one is the only one who's got a sheath, the other ones don't, and i shall place a picture of this sheath as well. regards, Ben |

I hope that the pictures are good enough.
The strange thing with the sheath is that it's Djogya, but the pendok is in my opinion Solo. The gandar is one piece with the warangka, but the bottom part of the gandar is to wide for a Djogya pendok. regards, Ben |

Thanks for the picture, no definite conclusion from my side but the shape of the greneng is odd, the ganja line does not match well with the blade (may be replaced later), the carving of the tikel alis does not look neat. A village blade IMO but I can be wrong, other opinions are welcome. Regards |

Hi Jean,
Thanks for your opinion, my knowledge is so little that i can't say anything about it. I think that most of my keris are the simple(village work?), but i don't mind at all, if they are real ones, i am satisfied, I've read this a couple of times here, you get what you pay for. But i hope there is someone who knows if this keris would be dressed in a Djoya or Solo dress. regards, Ben |

) majority of the blades we show here are village work. I doubt Harley had any greater expectation...
